Economics Personal Statement Advice (LSE and UCL)
What does LSE look for in a personal statement?
What are some things that I should definitely include?
Currently, I am planning to talk about:
A few books
HSBC Work Experience
Summer School
Game theory course
UCL and Cambridge Econ Masterclasses
The LSE econ course is very math-heavy and am assuming they want applicants to include math achievements and super curricular in their PS, what should I try and get done?
Also, could someone recommend me a book on the 2008 financial crisis?

LSE are very clear on the course pages what they’re looking for in your PS.
